About us, about me
'Loving what is'
Findhorn Images & Adriana
Findhorn Images is a small business, in premises at The Park, Findhorn. It’s amazing what can all be created in a small space! Some of our storage space is in Findhorn village.
One person on their own can do a lot if supported by others and Findhorn Images actually means Adriana Sjan Bijman PhotoArt.
I, Adriana, am the creative and art-directional 'working force' behind Findhorn Images. I am a photographer/graphic designer/artist and gardener, working and living since 1998 in Scotland. Where I love it! I was born at the Dutch countryside. I had my main design- & photography education at the G Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam and learned a lot since then. I am very interested in astrology and ancient matriarchal sites. I love reading and of course photographing! I love travelling and I lived in 4 other European countries before choosing the Moray coast in Scotland as my base. I like to call myself European.
For half a year I worked in Auroville in the south of India and the contact with a small paperfactory was kept; our handmade paper originates from there as a fair trade.
I am very grateful to have several other community members help me with Findhorn Images, as well as having the support of a community around me.
I greatly value my customers and equally value Nature's resources. Consequently I strive to produce a range of products local and environmental friendly. Our favourite local printer is the award winning Big Sky. They use vegetable oil based inks on FSC-accreditted paper.
Together we create the products with lots of love and joy, to spread the message of beauty and preciousness of Nature.
Thank you for visiting our website and enjoy browsing! And buying !
With Light, Adriana Sjan Bijman
Findhorn village and The Park
Findhorn is a small old fishing village at the Findhorn Bay on a peninsula into the Moray Firth in the north of Scotland."Findhorn" also stands for the 46-year- old intentional community on a spiritual base, including an eco-village. At its core is the Findhorn Foundation, with a living education workshop-centre-in-community. It's great to live here. Come and visit us!
Near the "Ee' at the village.
The Findhorn Bay and Moray Firth present a beautiful sight with its wide beaches and untouched dunelands full of wild plants, but our view is wider than that.
The Nature Sanctuary in The Park
The Findhorn Foundation Community is primarily based at The Park and at Cluny Hill College in Forres. The Findhorn Association (NFA) is the umbrella for the Findhorn Foundation, business and individual members of the community. The NFA has 3 listener-conveners, a council and holds regular community building meetings. Its weekly magazine is the Rainbow Bridge. (I am part of its layout team as a community service)
